Deadline day key events
Not Amorim's day: Man United's move for leading January target 'collapses'
Manchester United's negotiations with Bayern Munich over a loan deal for Mathys Tel have allegedly "collapsed".
Tel is believed to have told Bayern that he wants to make the move to Man United in the latter stages of the January transfer window, but there had not been an agreement in place with the Red Devils over a switch.
According to German journalist Florian Plettenberg, the negotiations between the two teams have "collapsed", and it is now highly unlikely that the forward will be making the move to Old Trafford.
Plettenberg claims that the Munich giants "rejected everything", and despite the 19-year-old being keen to make the move to Old Trafford, a switch to the 20-time English champions is now off the table.
Palmer 2:0? Chelsea 'make enquiry' for Man City prospect
Chelsea are reportedly contemplating whether to make a formal approach for a Manchester City academy graduate before Monday's transfer deadline.
The Blues have, as it stands, surprisingly been inactive with regards to incomings during the winter window, instead focusing on trying to facilitate exits.
On Sunday morning, it was confirmed that Cesare Casadei had completed a move to Torino, reducing the midfield options in Enzo Maresca's squad.
While Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez and Kieran Dewsbury-Hall remain available, another key man in Romeo Lavia is expected to remain on the sidelines until at least March.
A move for Samuel? Saints teenger 'set to sign' for French club
Southampton have reportedly agreed a deal with Strasbourg for Samuel Amo-Ameyaw to depart St Mary's Stadium.
The 18-year-old joined the South Coast club during the summer of 2022 from the academy of Tottenham Hotspur and soon made history for the Saints.
Amo-Ameyaw became the youngest-ever player to feature for Southampton in the Premier League when he made a cameo during the final match of the 2022-23 campaign.
Focusing on the present day, the winger is a prominent part of England Under-19s side, who also currently nurture the talents of club teammate Tyler Dibling.
Eagles vs. Foxes: Palace to battle Leicester for £25m Serie A defender?
Crystal Palace have reportedly joined Leicester City in the race for AC Milan centre-back Strahinja Pavlovic.
The 23-year-old has been on the fringes of the Rossoneri first team this term, managing just nine starts in the top flight of Italian football.
Palace are on the hunt for a top-tier defender during the final knockings of the winter window despite a glorious victory at Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.
Following an uneventful first period at the Theatre of Dreams, Oliver Glasner's troops struck twice to snatch all three points, with Jean-Philippe Mateta bagging a brace.
Latest January transfer news and rumours including Alcaraz to Everton
Everton have "reached an agreement" to sign Carlos Alcaraz on an initial loan deal from Flamengo.
The 22-year-old played for Southampton between January 2023 and January 2024 before joining Juventus on loan.
The Old Lady had the chance to sign Alcaraz on a permanent basis last summer but rejected the move, and the attacker instead made the move to Brazilian outfit Flamengo on a contract until August 2029.
However, Alcaraz is seemingly set for a return to the Premier League with Everton.
Tel decision made: Does Bayern man want Man United, Arsenal or Chelsea?
Mathys Tel has reportedly signalled that he wants to join Manchester United, with the Red Devils pushing to sign the Bayern Munich forward before the January transfer window closes for business.
The 19-year-old informed Bayern last week that he wants to leave Allianz Arena before the end of the winter market, and a number of Premier League clubs have been linked with his services.
Tottenham Hotspur are believed to have had an offer in the region of €60m (£50m) accepted by Bayern, only for the forward to make it clear that he was not interested in joining Ange Postecoglou's side.
Tel was not in the Bayern squad for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Holstein Kiel amid the speculation surrounding his future, with Chelsea, Arsenal and Man United allegedly all pushing to sign him.
Gloves off: Chelsea face Premier League competition for Sanchez successor?
Chelsea will reportedly have to fend off competition from Manchester United if they are to secure the services of Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel this summer.
In late 2024, it was claimed that the Blues had registered their interest in the Switzerland international, as Enzo Maresca scopes out possible replacements for the error-strewn Robert Sanchez.
The current Chelsea number one has already made five mistakes directly leading to a goal in the current Premier League season, the joint-most of any player in the division alongside Ipswich Town's Arijanet Muric.
Sanchez failed to cover himself in glory for Erling Haaland's goal in last weekend's 3-1 loss to Manchester City, and Maresca is facing calls to drop the Spaniard for summer signing Filip Jorgensen for Monday's London derby with West Ham United.
Swapping stripes: Newcastle defender en route to Itaty to complete Juve move
Juventus have reportedly reached an agreement with Newcastle United to sign defender Lloyd Kelly.
The 26-year-old only arrived are St James' Park in July last year on a free transfer from Bournemouth, penning a long-term deal until the summer of 2029.
However, Kelly has struggled to gain regular first-team football under Eddie Howe and has been limited to just seven starts and seven substitute appearances across all competitions.
Although Kelly is comfortable operating as either a centre-back or left-back, Howe has preferred to select Fabian Schar, Sven Botman, Dan Burn and, at times, Emil Krafth at the heart of his defence, while Lewis Hall has impressed throughout this season on the left.
Young Gunner: Arsenal lodge £2.5m bid for 16-year-old sensation
Arsenal have submitted a £2.5m bid for 16-year-old Adana Demirspor goalkeeper Deniz Donmezer, according to the Turkish club's former vice-president.
The Gunners underwent a significant summer of change in the goalkeeping department, firstly making David Raya's loan from Brentford permanent after a successful first season at the club.
Following one season as Raya's backup, Aaron Ramsdale jumped ship for relegation-threatened Southampton on a permanent deadline-day deal, leading the Gunners to bring in Neto on loan from Bournemouth as his replacement.
Arsenal's goalkeeping alterations were not limited to the seniors, as Arthur Okonkwo left on a free transfer for League One outfit Wrexham, while Tommy Setford and Lucas Nygaard both joined the club's academy ranks.
Heading home: Arsenal man 'very close' to transfer agreement
Arsenal midfielder Jorginho is reportedly close to agreeing a pre-contract deal with Flamengo ahead of a free transfer to the Brazilian outfit this summer.
The former Chelsea man extended his Gunners contract last year, but his existing terms only run until the end of the season, meaning that he is currently free to speak with foreign clubs.
Jorginho's terms do include a 12-month extension option until the summer of 2026, but Arsenal are expected to seal a deal for Real Sociedad lynchpin Martin Zubimendi when the summer window reopens.
As a result, Jorginho will continue to be a bit-part player under Mikel Arteta, even if Thomas Partey - also in the final six months of his deal - moves on at the end of the 2024-25 campaign too.
Dorgu, Heaven shirt numbers revealed as Man United unveil new signings
Patrick Dorgu and Ayden Heaven were presented to the Manchester United fans ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash against Crystal Palace, with their shirt numbers being revealed.
Heaven's arrival from Arsenal was confirmed on Saturday, and the highly-rated centre-back will wear the number 26 shirt for his new club, while Dorgu, who officially joined on Sunday morning, has been handed the '13' jersey.
Dorgu had the number 13 shirt at Lecce, and he has carried it over to Man United, becoming the first Red Devils player to sport that jersey since Lee Grant during the 2021-22 season.
Heaven, meanwhile, has become the first Man United player to wear the number 26 since Dean Henderson in 2023-24.
Championship quartet planning ambitious move for Chelsea starlet?
Leeds United are reportedly among the clubs who are eyeing a loan deal for Chelsea forward Marc Guiu.
Blues head coach Enzo Maresca admitted during a press conference on Friday that he had been left delighted with the progress of the former Barcelona youngster.
The recently-turned 19-year-old has contributed six goals - all of which have come in the Conference League - from 12 appearances in all competitions.
With Nicolas Jackson having struggled for goals over the past six weeks and continued uncertainty surrounding the future of Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku, Guiu could feature regularly in the senior squad going forward.
Man Utd, Arsenal 'both pushing' to sign forward before end of window
Manchester United and Arsenal allegedly remain strong contenders to sign Bayern Munich forward Mathys Tel.
There has been widespread speculation regarding the future of the Frenchman over the past week given his continued lack of game time at the Allianz Arena.
Although club officials have acknowledged that the 19-year-old could move on before Monday's transfer deadline, it remains unclear whether the player will jump at an opportunity to depart Bayern at this stage.
Previous reports have indicated that Tottenham Hotspur had reached an agreement with Bayern over a transfer fee should Tel wish to move to North London, something which looks unlikely.
Saga over: Serie A club announce signing of Chelsea midfielder
Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei has completed a permanent transfer to Torino.
The Italy Under-21 international has been heavily linked with a return to his homeland for over a month, it accepted by the player that his future would be away from Stamford Bridge.
While six appearances had been made in the EFL Cup and Conference League, Casadei failed to make a single Premier League outing during the first half of the season.
Widespread reports have suggested that Torino and Lazio have been battling for the 22-year-old's signature, both clubs having been regarded as favourites at different points in a drawn-out saga.
Man United sign Dorgu: Contract length, transfer fee, potential debut date
Manchester United have confirmed the signing of defender Patrick Dorgu from Lecce on a contract until June 2030.
The Denmark international underwent a medical with the Red Devils on Saturday, and his arrival at Old Trafford has now been confirmed, with the 20-year-old becoming Man United's second signing of the January transfer window.
The 20-time English champions confirmed the arrival of Ayden Heaven from Arsenal on Saturday, and Dorgu has now followed him to Manchester, with the left-back potentially being presented to the Old Trafford crowd ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash between Man United and Crystal Palace.
"I am incredibly proud to be able to call myself a Manchester United player; this is a very special day for my whole family," Dorgu told the club's official website upon confirmation of the move.
Latest January transfer news and rumours including Ferguson to West Ham
West Ham United have reportedly agreed a deal with Brighton & Hove Albion to loan Evan Ferguson.
The 20-year-old's future has been the subject of much speculation in recent weeks, with Brighton deciding that the striker is free to leave on loan during the January transfer window.
Everton and Bayer Leverkusen are among the clubs to be linked with the Republic of Ireland international, but according to Sky Sports News, West Ham have agreed to loan the forward for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign.
The report claims that Ferguson is due to travel to London on Sunday for a medical, as he prepares to reunite with now Hammers boss Graham Potter, who handed the youngster his debut at Brighton.
Hijack complete! Spurs sign Danso as transfer details, shirt number confirmed
Tottenham Hotspur have completed the signing of Lens defender Kevin Danso on loan with an obligation to buy at the end of the season.
The Austria international becomes Ange Postecoglou's first outfield acquisition of the January transfer window and just Spurs' second arrival of the month after Czech goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky.
Tottenham have welcomed Danso to North London after pulling off an incredible late transfer hijack, as the one-time Reading, MK Dons and Southampton man was initially poised to join Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Danso's camp had reportedly reached a full agreement with Wolves, and the defender was set to undergo a medical with the West Midlands side on Sunday, but it was cancelled once the centre-back learned of Spurs' interest.
A complete guide to transfer deadline day: Who could be on the move? When do the windows shut?
Jim White and his yellow tie. Harry Redknapp leaning out of his car window to exchange pleasantries with reporters. Fans swarming correspondents outside grounds as their clubs pull off that last-ditch, big-money deal.
All of the above has become synonymous with transfer deadline day, where despite having had at least a full month to either bring in new faces or shift deadwood, many clubs leave their business until the eleventh hour.
That is not the case for rejuvenated Premier League champions Manchester City, who have already splashed the cash on Omar Marmoush, Vitor Reis and Abdukodir Khusanov this month, or Aston Villa, whose high-profile sale of Jhon Duran to Al-Nassr is the most expensive dealing so far.
However, a plethora of other Premier League clubs will be working around the clock to either improve or trim down their squads before the deadline strikes, and here, Sports Mole rounds up everything you need to know about transfer deadline day for January 2025.
Rashford to Villa: What are the details surrounding the high-profile January deal?
Aston Villa will reportedly have the chance to sign Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford on a permanent basis during this summer's transfer window for £40m.
The 27-year-old is set to undergo a medical with Villa on Sunday, as he prepares to join Unai Emery's side on loan for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign.
Villa emerged as the favourites for Rashford after it became clear that Barcelona would be unable to do a deal due to their financial issues, and the switch is expected to be confirmed by the end of the weekend.
According to The Sun, there is a buy option included in the agreement, with Villa able to purchase him for £40m at the end of the campaign, while Emery's side will also cover a significant portion of his salary.
Rashford replacement: Man United 'consider shock move' for Premier League forward
Manchester United are reportedly considering making an attempt to sign Aston Villa attacker Leon Bailey on loan for the second half of the 2024-25 campaign, as the Red Devils looks to bring in a replacement for Marcus Rashford.
Villa are on the verge of announcing the loan signing of Rashford, with the Englishman set to join Unai Emery's side for the second half of the season, while there will allegedly be the option to acquire him on a permanent basis this summer.
Man United are expected to sign a new attacker before Monday night's transfer deadline, with Bayern Munich's Mathys Tel currently being linked with a switch to Old Trafford.
However, according to The Athletic, Bailey is also being considered in a deal separate to Rashford's one, with the Jamaica international potentially available on loan for the second half of the season.
